The Bluetooth Serial Port application allows this computer to establish a wireless serial connection with a
remote Bluetooth device.

The applications on both this computer and the remote device must be configured to send and receive data to
and from the respective communications port (COM port) assigned to the Bluetooth serial port. The wireless
serial connection may then be used by the applications as though a physical serial cable connected the
devices.

Establish a connection using one of these techniques:

Notification area, at the far right of the taskbar, Bluetooth icon

From My Bluetooth Places

Using the Bluetooth Setup Wizard

If the connection was established from the Bluetooth icon in the Notification area, at the far right of the taskbar;
click the Bluetooth icon, select Quick Connect, Bluetooth Serial Port and then select the device that is providing
the service (active connections have a checkmark in front of them).

or

No matter how the connection was created, In My Bluetooth Places, right-click the service name and select
Disconnect.

The Bluetooth Configuration Panel > Client Applications > Bluetooth Serial Port > General tab provides options
to configure:

The application name - to change it, highlight the existing name and enter the new name.

Secure connection - to enable secure connection, select the option box. To disable secure connection,
clear the option box.

The communications port (COM port) to be used.

The Bluetooth Dial-up Networking application allows this computer to use a modem that is physically
connected to a remote device to access the Internet or log on to a remote network.

Note: Unless you have a specific reason to do so, DO NOT CHANGE the default COM Port setting.
